For Yumna

The Murder Puppet

Kayla stood in shock, looking at the few policemen surrounding her while pointing guns.

"What's this about? You must have misunderstood," he said in a panic.

"Immediately arrest this woman sir, she's already tried to blackmail us." Naya pointed at Kayla with satisfaction.

"What's? The blackmail? No-no this isn't blackmail." Kayla is trying to give up.

"Then what? Tell me what's this called?" Naya is approaching Kayla.

Kayla looked panicked, confused as to what to answer, the suitcase filled with money underneath was evidence she could no longer refute.

A policeman then immediately grabbed him, handcuffing both his hands.

Kayla. He only looked at Kevin and Naya with great anger, not expecting that he would be caught up in his own plan.

Kevin and Naya grinned triumphantly. Kayla was speechless seeing the two. Feeling stupid because he did not think well about the plan he had prepared, he only focused on the money he would earn without thinking about the consequences of all his actions.

The police led Kayla to their car which was apparently not far from there, some other police also took the suitcase to be used as evidence.

Kevin holds Yumna. Hugged and kissed her many times.

"Are you okay, baby?"

Yumna shook her head.

"I'm sorry, dear father, I don't take good care of you, but I promise you this won't happen again." Kevin hugged and stroked his daughter's hair.

Indra walked back and forth in panic, he had heard the news of Kayla's capture, so he became increasingly upset that Kayla would drag him into prison. Especially when considering his treatment of Kayla this morning, he knew for sure his wife would not let him roam freely.

After a long thought, he finally chose to go to the police station, he wanted to see Kayla and tell her something.

Arriving at the police station, Indra apparently did not come alone, he brought along a lawyer for his wife.

Kayla just smiled faintly at the worry so obvious on her husband's face.

"Thank God you're here. So the cops won't have much trouble finding you."

"Think well mature. Your sentence will be even more severe if the police know that you are also the mastermind of the murder," Indra said slowly, although he was actually quite panicked and afraid, he tried to speak calmly.

"Do you want to bully me?"

"No. It's just that the punishment for extortion you do at least a year and two years. But if you want to drag me to prison too, your sentence will also be longer, it could be a lifetime or even a death sentence."

Kayla. His mouth was mute when he heard Indra's words.

"So. Don't even think about unlocking both of us, in return I've brought the best lawyers to help you. He'll help you so you can get the minimum possible punishment." Indra appointed a lawyer who sat not far from there.

Kayla only glanced at the lawyer at a glance.

"Think about. Don't just be emotional and want to repay me, instead you'll make yourself even more miserable."

"How's it?" Indra looked at Kayla's face.

Kayla stunned. All Indra's words seemed to realize if he seemed to have to keep the secret about the death of Danendra, he had thought if Indra also had to participate in prison, not willing to let him roam freely out there, but after hearing his words earlier, making Indra go to jail is just like digging his own grave.

"The problem is that the evidence of your involvement is in my phone and now my phone has been confiscated by the police." Kayla saw her husband.

"What?" Indra.

"You haven't deleted it?"

"Damn!" Indra's face paled.

"What should I do now?" Kayla panicked, she did not want to stay in jail longer, especially if she had to be put to death.

Indra did not answer. He just stared hard at Kayla's face then immediately left from there in a hurry.

Leaving Kayla who sat in fear. Hoping that the police wouldn't tamper with his cell phone and find evidence of the premeditated murder they committed on Danendra.

"Is he asleep?" Yanti approached Naya who was sleeping Yumna.

"Yes mother. Yumna just went to bed."

Yanti sat on her grandson's bed with a sad look in her eyes, there was a lot of sadness that she had been holding back.

"My poor grandson. Hopefully he's not traumatized by today's events." Yanti rubbed her grandson's back.

"He was a little scared. But I'm sure if he's okay. To make sure that tomorrow Kevin's taking me to take Yumna to a psychiatrist."

"Yes. You guys should take him. The pity of this little child must continue to experience tragic things, but even more loving, tragic things are actually caused by his own biological mother."

Naya was silent.

"But I am grateful. Finally the woman got her reply. I'm so happy to hear that he was finally arrested by the police. At least we're finally free from the fear that the woman will continue to bother Yumna."

"Yes. Mom was right. At least now we don't have to worry anymore. Kayla's already in jail."

***

Nightfall.

After work Kevin will return home, but suddenly the police contact him and ask him to go to the police station right now, they say if there is an important issue they want to tell.

"Sorry sir. We found this on the woman's phone."

Kevin saw it immediately. Carefully read a screenshot of a conversation about planning for her sister's death.

His blood was boiling intensely. The anger exploded uncontrollably. Immediately swinging a step with strong clenched hands and hardened jaws, his facial line was full of anger and unbearable emotions.

Kevin looked at Kayla who was now standing glued in the cell, a cruel and cruel gaze he directed at the woman who realized that her secret had now been revealed.

Fortunately there are iron bars that become a separator between them, if not, Kayla is sure that at this time Kevin will not care if he is a woman. The man who was being overpowered by those emotions would definitely beat him all out.

"So you killed my brother?" ask slowly, with great emphasis.

Kayla did not answer. Denying it is of course free, strong evidence they have all seen.

"So you and your husband were behind my brother's accident?"

Kayla. Body shaking. He's really scared.

"Java!!" Kevin yelling.

Instead of answering, Kayla retreated even more terrified.

The police approached Kevin trying to calm him down. Whispering something made Kevin immediately run from there in a hurry.

Kayla breathed a sigh of relief. The departure of them all must be to arrest Indra who has been confirmed to be a suspect in a premeditated murder case.

Kayla was drooping, her carelessness had caught her in her own trap. His greed has brought him into the bars, now he knows after this he must pay for the crime he has committed. He is still lucky if only get a life sentence because in fact he deserves the heaviest sentence that is the death penalty.
